A few basic questions about the MetaCard interface itself:
On pulldown menus or when the contents of a field are autohighlighted, the
highlighted choice is white text with yellow highlight, which I find hard to
read. Is there a way to change the color of the highlight?
The only place I can find the Icons button is on the Stack Properties tab.
Unfortunately, when I select an icon for the button I'm creating, the Icon
Chooser auto-closes, so I have to go back to the Stack properties and call
up the Icon Chooser for each button I want to assign an icon to.
The tutorial refers to turning on the grid, or changing its settings, but I
can't find the method for turning the grid on and off.
More advanced question: I prefer to work with my Windows 98 screen set to
1600x1200 pixels (just so everybody at the office will make fun of me for
the wee text nobody else can read), but won't be developing for this
resolution. We actually want to develop for full screen display on HP-UNIX
and Windows NT systems (for which I know no other specifications). I will,
however, be developing the storyboards (right now trying to do it in
MetaCard, learn as I go!) on the Windows 98. If everything works out well,
we will develop the running files directly from the WYSIWYG storyboards. So
what is the question? How can we script the stack to transfer without too
much pain from my 1600x1200 screen to automatically fill the screens of
other systems, regardless of resolution?
Thank you!
